Smartphone app monitors dogs’ breathing rate

I’ve just discovered the “respiratory rate calculator” by Boehringer Ingelheim, which acts as a useful tool in aiding clients to keep an eye on their dogs’ respiratory rate.

I find this invaluable for dogs with congestive heart failure, and because it allows owners to keep a record of results over time it can be a great aid in monitoring the response to various therapies.
